Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 345 "Spiritual Soldiers Descended from Heaven"

The night wind was howling, and from nowhere, there was a few traces of bloody breath.

The arsenal of Jinling City, where countless weapons and ordnance were piled up, was supposed to be the most heavily guarded place, but for some reason, it was extremely quiet tonight.

With a sound of "噗嗤", a sharp blade pierced through flesh and blood, and there was a strange "cracker" sound of bones being torn apart suddenly.

Accompanied by a slight "buzzing" sound, the blood droplet bit off the head, dripping blood continuously, and fell straight into the hands of a stick guard in night clothes.

The guards at the sticking pole looked around and looked at the guards and soldiers lying on the ground in twos and threes, and couldn't help saying in a muffled voice:
"The arsenal of Jinling City is so empty of guards?"

The huge arsenal of Jinling City, the guards at the sticky pole rummaged through it, but only found more than 100 Xia Guo soldiers guarding it.

In the dark place next to it, suddenly dozens of guards from the sticky pole, all dressed in black and smelling like blood, came out together.

The headed guard at the sticky pole said in a deep voice:

"Emperor Xia can't govern, Jinling City is chaotic inside and outside, the troops that were supposed to change defenses haven't arrived today, they won't come until tomorrow."

"Ah, what a coincidence, no wonder you want to do it tonight!"

"Stop talking nonsense, Master Yiwei has an order. After seizing the arsenal tonight, all the guards will withdraw immediately. The original stronghold will be abandoned and not allowed to return. Anyone who violates the order will be punished by the family law!" ordered.

All the guards at the sticking pole immediately clasped their fists and saluted, and responded in unison:
"Yes!"

The gate of the arsenal of Jinling City opened slowly, and a group of guards at the sticky poles ran out quickly, and then dispersed in an instant, taking advantage of the darkness to hide and scatter away.

After a stick of incense, only the sound of hurried footsteps could be heard from outside the arsenal.

Hundreds of private soldiers from the Jin Palace had just arrived outside the gate of the arsenal when they saw the wide open gate and the faintly visible guards lying on the ground.

The leading confidant of King Jin was overjoyed at this moment, lowered his voice and urged the private soldiers:

"Quickly, enter the arsenal! Each takes armor and weapons, and another two hundred crossbows!"

"Yes!"

Because there were several imperial guards supporting the palace at this time, even the siege equipment was no longer needed.

Hundreds of private soldiers rushed into the arsenal immediately after hearing the order.

When they came out again, the private soldiers who were originally just armored swords seemed to be equipped with the most sophisticated equipment.

The private soldiers who had finished changing their costumes, because the plan went unbelievably smoothly, their morale had also increased visibly, and under the leadership of the leading general, they continued to march towards the imperial city.

Yinhan Gate is the southeast gate of the imperial city, and it takes a detour to get to the arsenal of Jinling City.

It took another half an hour before hundreds of private soldiers arrived in front of Yinhan Gate.

The gatekeeper general above the Yinhan Gate, when he saw the well-armored and well-armed private soldiers of the Jin Palace coming, he didn't even have the slightest intention to stop him.

With an order, the Yinhan Gate quietly opened.

Everything that happened after the rise of troops tonight went so smoothly, almost to the point where people couldn't help but feel a little unbelievable.

But looking at the imperial palace Miyagi in front of him, the confidant of King Jin, who was leading the army, panted slightly.

From the power of the dragon...

Power and wealth, a long family, and living with the country are just around the corner!
Thinking of this, he immediately put aside the slight sense of something wrong that he vaguely felt in his heart.

Looking at the group of private soldiers, the confidant of King Jin, who was the leader, immediately shouted loudly:

"Your Majesty was coerced by traitors and held hostage in the palace. On His Majesty's orders, raise troops to rescue him!"

All the private soldiers cheered up and shouted in unison:

"Rise up the army, help!"

"Kill!"

The next moment, the sound of shouting and killing suddenly sounded in the Xia Kingdom Palace, which had never experienced military chaos.
-
At this time, somewhere in an unknown small courtyard.

Yu Yingyao suddenly raised her head to look outside the door, and asked in a deep voice:

"Did you hear anything just now?"

He Yin, the maid who was serving Yu Yingyao at the side, was taken aback when she heard the words, and turned her ears to listen, but she didn't hear anything, so she shook her head and said:

"Miss, the servant didn't hear anything...do you want the servant to go out and have a look?"

When Yu Yingyao heard this, she hesitated and said:
"No, maybe I heard wrong..."

As soon as the voice fell, there was only a loud "bang".

A black shadow suddenly smashed through the door and flew in backwards, startling the master and servant in the room.

When she saw the face of the person Qingfei came in, Yu Yingyao's almond eyes widened, showing a look of horror.

The person lying on the ground with weak breath was the eighth-rank embroiderer who was in charge of protecting Yu Yingyao outside the courtyard.

The world has changed drastically, the restrictions on warriors have been weakened, and the advancement of martial arts is not as difficult as it was back then.With the breakthrough of those masters who have been stuck at the eighth level for a long time, the number of ninth-level masters who were rare in the world before now is much more.

It's just that embroiderers do dirty work after all, and are obviously not popular with these masters compared to serving as guards and guest ministers next to princes, princes, and civil and military officials.

And now that Emperor Xia was dying, the only two ninth-level masters among the embroiderers were also assigned to guard the palace, so Yu Yingyao was only left with this eighth-level guard.

I thought my location was hidden, and few people could find it. An eighth-level master and a group of elite embroidered clothes guards were enough!
Unexpectedly, the person who attacked tonight used some means to avoid a group of elite embroidered clothes envoys, and sneaked in here without making a sound.An eighth-level master, at this time, even before he had time to warn, he lost all resistance.

"No, miss, go away!" The maid Heyin panicked.

The door of the room had already been knocked open, looking out from the inside of the house, the courtyard was dark, as if there were countless sights with murderous intent hidden.Yu Yingyao felt a chill in her heart, her hands and feet froze in place, and she said in a deep voice:
"I'm afraid it's too late!"

As soon as the words fell, I heard someone in the courtyard say loudly:
"It's really too late!"

While wiping away the blood stained on the long sword, Ju Meng walked out from the shadows and appeared in Yu Yingyao's sight.

Looking at Yu Yingyao who was staring at her, Ju Meng slightly bowed and said:
"Shangyu's spare place, Yiwei Envoy Jumeng, met the princess!"

Yu Yingyao looked Ju Meng up and down, gritted her teeth and said:

"People from Yun Country!"

Ju Meng straightened his body, cupped his hands in the southwest direction, and said:

"Your Majesty said that after tonight, there will only be Emperor Ji Rouning in the world, and there will be no Fourteenth Princess!"

At this time, Ju Meng's eyes were sharp, full of killing intent, and his hands were already on the hilt of his sword.

Yu Yingyao's method of secretly messing up the situation is indeed powerful enough.But she didn't know martial arts after all. At this time, under the lock of Ju Meng's murderous intent, her whole body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Respectfully send the princess on the road!" Ju Meng Lang shouted at this time, and the long sword was already out of its sheath.

The sharp sword energy raged out from the long sword, and instantly turned into sword lights, piercing Yu Yingyao's chest.

As soon as Yu Yingyao's pupils dilated, she felt a pain in her chest, and she fell back weakly.

He Yin's face was dull, and she was stunned in place. Seeing Yu Yingyao slowly collapsed in front of her, she felt dizzy and her hands and feet felt weak.

And at this moment, he heard a violent shout, which suddenly awakened He Yin.

"Ah, you are a bold rebel, Miss Xiushang!"

A broken, sharp voice.To He Yin's ears, it sounded like a fairy sound.

She suddenly turned her head to look, and Zhong Zizhuo, who was wearing a third-rank embroidered official uniform, suddenly led a group of embroidered clothes to fight out.

The rich body was outlined by the brocade embroidered clothes, and every time he took a step, the round and protruding abdomen trembled a few times.Or maybe it was because of the urgency in his heart that Zhong Zizhuo showed a ferocious look on his face, and his originally kind and fat face looked a little ugly at this moment.

But in the eyes of Heyin at this time, Zhong Zizhuo seemed to have added a filter, making him appear extraordinarily tall and mighty.

Seeing Zhong Zizhuo who descended like a divine soldier, Heyin's eyes were filled with tears, and he shouted excitedly:

"Hurry up and save the lady!"

Suddenly, the sound of shouting and killing resounded in the small courtyard.

Zhong Zizhuo took the lead bravely, with a weapon in his hand, he was brave and invincible, he slashed from left to right, slashing and killing among the crowd, and rushed to Jumeng abruptly.

Ju Meng swung his long sword, trying to stop him, but among the group of embroidered envoys brought by Zhong Zizhuo, several of them jumped out and blocked the long sword for Zhong Zizhuo, and immediately fought together.

Zhong Zizhuo rushed in front of Yu Yingyao, knelt down on the ground with a "plop", opened his mouth and wailed:

"Miss, why do you go like this..."

Before the words fell, He Yin suddenly interrupted:

"Commander Zhong, Miss is still alive!"

Zhong Zizhuo's crying voice froze for a moment.

Looking down, she saw that the vital part of Yu Yingyao's chest had been pierced by the sword energy on the ground, but at this moment, her chest was still rising and falling, and she seemed to be holding her breath.

I rely on, not dead yet?This is not the same as the original plan!

Zhong Zizhuo stayed where he was, his eyes widened, and he subconsciously looked at Jumeng behind him.

You boy, can't you, this didn't kill you?
He Yin was anxious at this time, so naturally he couldn't detect the strangeness of Dao Zhong Zizhuo, so he said quickly:
"Hurry up, Commander Zhong, first follow me in secret and escort the young lady away!"

Zhong Zizhuo was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked around.

At this time, in the entire small courtyard, two groups of people were very devoted to the performance in order to make this play realistic.When you come and go, the swords are clashing. From anyone's point of view, it is a fighting posture. No one has noticed the predicament that Zhong Zizhuo is encountering at this time.

"Master Zhong, hurry up. Otherwise, or miss, she will..." He Yin pulled Zhong Zizhuo's sleeve, her voice choked up.

The play in front of him is for King Qi to trust Zhong Zizhuo more in the future.

And the Heyin in front of him is the most critical person, the witness who will prove Zhong Zizhuo's loyalty in the future.In front of her, of course, you can't play badly!
In desperation, Zhong Zizhuo had no choice but to bite the bullet and said:

"Okay, girl, please lead the way!"

When He Yin heard this, he immediately lifted his spirits, gritted his teeth and stood up, helping Zhong Zizhuo to pick up Yu Yingyao, and then quickly stepped forward to lead the way.

She fiddled with the bookshelf a few times, and there was a sound of mechanism, and the bookshelf immediately moved away, revealing the deep secret passage hidden behind.

Heyin turned his head and took a look at the assassin and the embroiderer who were fighting fiercely, feeling certain in his heart, and said:
"Come on!"

After all, she took the lead in entering the secret path to lead the way.

Zhong Zizhuo turned his head and glanced at Ju Meng, perhaps because he was extremely confident in his swordsmanship, Ju Meng didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, and thought that the maid didn't want Yu Yingyao's body to fall into the enemy's hands.

Noticing Zhong Zizhuo's gaze, he blinked and nodded at Zhong Zizhuo indiscernibly.

Go, I'm here!

"Kill, don't let them run away!" Ju Meng shouted deliberately.

Zhong Zizhuo felt a tightness in his chest, sighed tiredly, and could only step into the secret path.

But before he took a few steps, suddenly, he heard a crisp sound of "dong".

Zhong Zizhuo was taken aback for a moment, then subconsciously looked down.

Then he saw Yu Yingyao who was being held horizontally in her arms. At this time, her pure white forehead was knocked heavily on the stone wall of the secret path, and a bruise suddenly appeared.

This secret passage is very narrow, and it can barely accommodate one person to pass through.

Just now Zhong Zizhuo was still thinking about what to do next, so he was naturally a little distracted, he didn't pay attention, and hit Yu Yingyao hard on the stone wall.

That very crisp sound, as well as Yu Yingyao's instantly bruised forehead, all mean that the impact just now was not light...

Zhong Zizhuo was taken aback, and quickly raised his head to look at Heyin who was leading the way.

But at this time, He Yin obviously didn't notice anything because of the sound of shouting and killing coming from behind.

Zhong Zizhuo paused, looked at the narrow secret passage, and then at Yu Yingyao in his arms, his brows twitched suddenly, and a treacherous smile could not help showing at the corner of his mouth.

He Yin, who was leading the way, turned his head slightly and said anxiously:
"Commander Zhong, hurry up!"

Zhong Ziyan immediately restrained his smile, took a deep breath, and said urgently:
"Let's go, the pursuers are coming!"

He Yin was startled, and he really heard the sound of footsteps coming from the secret passage behind him, he couldn't help but panic again, and said hastily:

"Quick, come with me!"

Because they were worried about chasing soldiers, the two no longer cared about other things, and trotted forward in the secret road.

"Boom"

"Boom"

"Boom"

Crisp voices sounded in the secret passage one after another, but they were covered by the shout of killing coming from the secret passage behind.

Yu Yingyao's originally smooth forehead had already been punched several times.That is to say, the secret path is dim, and some people can't see clearly, otherwise He Yin, who was leading the way, would have noticed something strange.

"Boom!"

Under Zhong Zizhuo's secret force, Yu Yingyao's forehead collided fiercely with the secret path stone wall again.

Yu Yingyao, who had already fallen into a coma, turned her eyelids at this time, opened her eyes suddenly, and stared at Zhong Zizhuo firmly, her eyes were first surprised, then suddenly realized, and finally filled with anger.

Obviously, she was just in a coma just now, and she could still detect Zhong Ziyan's small movements.

Zhong Zizhuo lowered his head, just in time to see Yu Yingyao who was covered in blood, opened his eyes and stared at him, he was startled immediately, and with force involuntarily, he knocked Yu Yingyao onto the stone wall again.

"Boom!"

Yu Yingyao rolled her eyes and finally completely lost consciousness.

Looking at Yu Yingyao whose chest was no longer heaving, Zhong Zizhuo suddenly let out a long breath...

　(18000/20000)

　　Finally finished writing, don't say I'm lazy, I have to consider the continuity and rationality of the plot.

　　And the rest of this chapter, just die, it seems not very good.Then suddenly an idea came up, and I borrowed the death method of the concubine in the movie version of Wulin Biography, maybe to increase the fun.

　　But I don't know why, but I always feel a little uncomfortable...
